Question

I have added an onClick event to anchor tag, when the user clicks on it. I have to get the inner html without using the id attribute.Following is the code what i am using. Please help me to achieve this.

function bttnpressed()
{
   alert('inside bttnpressed');
}
<a onclick="bttnpressed()">name1</a>

Answer 1

You can use innerHTML property. You need to pass the source of event to click event which could be passed using this.

function bttnpressed(obj)
{
   alert('inside bttnpressed');
   alert(obj.innerHTML);
}
<a onclick="bttnpressed(this)">name1</a>
